I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving break! Today, we had a great day! We started out by finishing our "See" sight word page from last week. Then we introduced our new letter of the week "Ii" which says the /i/ sound, like in igloo! We read a story about "Iguana on Ice," and did our picture guess of all the things that start with an Ii. Then we did our Calendar and Daily News. After that we had indoor recess today. After recess, we worked on our counting pathway and careful counting skills. We read another story about different ways people get around called "On The Go." This book was a non-fiction book, which means that it was all about real ways people get around. In the AM class, we discussed what we liked most about our Thanksgiving break and then we wrote about it. In the PM class, we had a Royal Reader and we went to Library to check out our book and we read the story "Moosetache."
Reminders:
1) Homework folders came home tonight! Please encourage your child to do their best! They are going to share their best sentence on Friday to the class. Also, please rate your child's effort on their homework.
2) If you have not sent in the goldenrod form for the field trip, please do so! This will let me know if we have enough volunteers, as of right now, we are close, but do not have enough volunteers.
3) Please send in the $10 cash for the field trip for your child. If you are volunteering, on the day of the trip, you will need to bring $3 cash for your bus ride.
4) Next Take Home Book Exchange is on Thursday!
Have a great evening!
~Love,
Mrs. Wittwer
